Interesting African Books

If you are interested in the real Africa, her people, nature,
history and any other information, do a bit of research into the
manifest, diaries and writings of the "old African travellers
and explorers.

These people write down what they see and experienced, with
little or no political agenda, and these observations contain the uniqueness of
un-bias African knowledge.

Through the 30 odd years of travelling, exploring Africa
and the world, I have met a few interesting people in my life, ranging from Head
of States, famous actors and actresses, Royalty, and then the odd world
criminal, even a "freedom-fighter" or two! One thing they all have in common:
Each one has a story to tell!

"In these days of strive and conflict we so easily forget, to see the
humanity in our fellow humans. To each, our life's road, seem very normal, even
ordinary. Yet, to others, it might seem an adventure, a dream fulfilled. When
life's road has been done, no monument or fame could capture our name that well
as the loving memory in a friend's heart." : Quotes by Chrigi-in-Africa.
